Description

If I changed the line endings maybe accidentelly, because of windows is using CRLF and Unix is using LF, I see that my file was modified which is fine, but I don't see why or which lines are affected. If I push to github, every line will be red from the old and green from the new one. In IntelliJ you see on the top of the window which line ending the files have. So if the file from remote has LF and mine local CRLF, I can see it in the diff window and can figure that problem out that I accendently switched the line ending. This is very handy and needed to not commit such files that where changed automatically.
